The Poet for Hire Publishes Stone's Throw
I decided to come out with Stone's Throw, a regular zine comprised of contributors from the crowds of Stone Soup Poetry and Oddball Magazine. After nearly a year of immersion in web publishing with Oddball, doing this back-to-basics, three-stapled, one-sided-copies approach seemed like the perfect thing to do. Still, I want to make sure the work I select gets seen by as many people as possible, so I will be offering each issue as a PDF file as well.
For each issue of Stone's Throw, poets will be chosen and invited to contribute poems that either relate (however closely or loosely) to each issue's selected theme.
